From the documentation I've seen, there are only two medium res colour palettes,
one with black, red, green, yellow, and the other black, magenta, cyan, white.

However, Turbo Pascal can set another two palettes with "high intensity"
colours.  How is this done?  The BIOS Video Set Palette call doesn't
seem to be able to set palette 2 or 3.  Is there a BIOS call to do this?
Is there a (much less portable) IO address to poke?

Thank you very much,
